This gorgeous nearly 1,300 square foot Tudor style home, built in 1928, is full of attractive architectural details inside and out. The home’s façade features steep cross gables, decorative brickwork, and several leaded glass windows. Walking through the arched front door, visitors will appreciate the many windows and cove ceilings, making the first floor bright and airy. An arched brick fireplace with tiled hearth is a beautiful focal point of the living room. Wood floors are found throughout much of the home, including the 3 bedrooms. The 1 bathroom has chevron style tiles on the floor, and subway tiles on the walls, adding to its unique character.
Purchasers will benefit from the home’s location within the Bagley community. The home is close to shops and restaurants along Livernois’ Avenue of Fashion, and not far from U of D Mercy and Palmer Park. The backyard is ample, and also contains a detached 2-car garage. The fixtures in the kitchen and bathroom are missing, and will need extensive renovations.
Many other repairs will be needed before occupying the home, and buyers should consult the attached pre-sale inspection report for more information. Please note that the purchaser will also be responsible for the current year (2014); property taxes at the time of closing.
Please note that the rehab cost will often cost more than the winning bid price. Failure to bring a property up to code within 6 months will result in forfeiture of property (9 months for historic properties). Auction dates are subject to change. Check the site regularly to be aware of any schedule changes.
